Mattie, my heart is absolutely broken. That beautiful face, a smile that lit up my heart. My apple throwing, baseball pitching little buddy. You grew into a beautiful young man with an equally beautiful heart. It's hard now to look out my window and see no activity in that once lively home of yours. I know you took that smile to share with God. And may your family know my heart aches for them as well. I am here as a friend for them no matter what they need. Hugs to you Mattie!

My heart aches for what you are going thru. I would like to extend my condolences to you and your family. This is truley a tragedy. Matty has touched our lives in such a wonderful way...with his goofy sense of humor and that sometimes devious smile! Love him dearly....he will be missed!! I know that he is with the angels now and giving them a run for their money...making them laugh like he always did for us! My heart goes out to you all! We'll see you again Matty!! xoxo

Although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear, just know that you are very close in every thought and prayer.

We are so sorry for the loss of your son/grandson. Our family was very saddened to hear. He is with God now and he will always be there in spirit and in your hearts. I know words of comfort are few at this time. God Bless.
Matt and your family will be in our prayers.

Matt, I'll miss you playing out front of my house with my kids, skateboarding, riding your bike and making noise like all boys do. I can't believe your gone. You'll be missed so very much, you touched so many lives. I'll miss that sweet little face of yours, you were such a precious boy. Miss you always♥

Scott...you have been my neighbor for forever. We've raised kids, dogs and vegetables. We have seen alot come and go. But you, you were always like a comfortable shoe. I knew you were there, so I was secure knowing a good yell was all i'd need if I needed help. I CANNOT imagine you not being there anymore. But I wish you peace and love and good memories wherever your move takes you. My friendship goes with you as well.

I've lived in the Park long enough to have other kids thru the years come back to see me with THEIR kids. Was kinda hoping he would someday do the same. Will miss you dearly anytime I have to go out there to cut my own grass or shovel my own snow. You are still loved, keep an eye on your family and bring some smiles back soon.
Love and sympathy to all of you;

Matt - You are missed by us all at Magee. What I will miss the most is messing around at the school dances and in the hallway with you. Rest in peace my friend.

We will all miss you Mattie. You left us too soon and my heart is broken for you. I will miss your smile and your beautiful precious face. I loved having you ride with us when we went to Nick's football practice and games. You were sooo sweet and sooo wonderful to be around. I can only express my deepest sympathy to Brandon and his mom. Mattie was loved by us and we will never forget him. Brandon, I will miss you too. You are a wonderful boy and I am sorry for the pain you've had to go thru. God bless you.
